International Representation

Weston McKennie is bossing the Champions League, and we’re here for it! Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola discuss the Juventus midfielder’s UCL goal streak as well as his comments about being willing to run through a wall for Luciano Spalletti (06:43). But with his contract running down, what does the future hold for the in-form USMNT star (11:59)? Eric Ramsay’s rough start at West Brom adds to the negative perception of MLS coaches (24:26). The plot thickens at Norwich amid reports that Josh Sargent may have played his last game for the Canaries (32:46). And the crew reacts to Brian Gutierrez and Richy Ledezma choosing to represent Mexico (42:42). Then it’s Mailbag time, as the guys discuss the challenges facing small-market MLS teams (46:19), the Sergiño Dest vs. Tim Weah debate (56:58), the best World Cup group-stage matchups (1:01:42), and which MLS clubs could emerge as dark horses this season (1:02:54).
